O.J. Simpson‘s estate is taking legal action against Justin Simpson, the late athlete and Nicole Brown Simpson’s son, for allegedly moving into his father’s house without permission and refusing to leave.
TMZ reports that Malcolm LaVergne, the attorney serving as the special administrator of O.J.’s estate, filed a suit against Primary Holdings, LLC, a company he says is owned and operated by Justin. The legal documents state that the company purchased the home in August 2022 while O.J. was living there to stop creditors from seizing the property.
LaVergne says Justin moved into the house after his father passed away in April 2024 and is “refusing to vacate the property or pay the estate back for the alleged payments Simpson continued to make even after Primary Holding took ownership.”

The attorney says O.J. did not intend for the house to be separated from the estate and has been making payments on the house. Legal action is being taken because Justin is accused of moving into the house despite having his own property nearby, which contradicts what is stated in O.J.’s will. According to MSN, Justin is now 36-years-old and is a successful realtor.
